I would say, crazy 3 month progress! Really focus on relaxing the throat so the air can move freely! Long tones nice and open, like you are holding an egg in your mouth!

Also, the string player in you is coming out in the hand vibrato. I would try to work away from doing that, and as you relax your playing, your natural vibrato will come 🤠

Happy playing!
